How does it work, exactly?

Minecraft: Missing Memorial Book by Matt Cipher on 2016-06-29 19:14:00 UTC Reply

A'right, Generic Server users, we've noticed that a certain memorial book had disappeared from the Mausoleum right outside the Keep. One of certain Judith the mini-zombie, very precious member that was with us in our early days. The culprit is asked to return the book at once, and maybe (just maybe) won't face the punishment.

On another note, if I find the one that turned my Sacred Tree Yggdrasil the Fifth into this...this... THIS... better hope I will still have mercy left in me.

I really want to join, but I unfortunately do not own a copy of Minecraft. And considering how against gaming my mother is, that's not likely to happen any time soon. >.>

Do you mind if I join in? I've played a bit of it single-player on a friend's computer before (and did a ton of wiki-diving afterwards) so I'm not completely newbie at this, and I promise I am not going to be a nuisance.

I'll need your username to add to the white list. by JulyFlame on 2016-07-01 17:24:00 UTC Reply

That goes for anyone who wants to join, by the way.

Same as my Board name, without space by Sergio Turbo on 2016-07-01 17:50:00 UTC Reply

... also, is it called the Generic Server on the server list, right?

I mean, AFAIK I now just have to wait the invite, right?

But, more importantly, are there any particular rules in the server aside from the obvious ones like behaving? For example, I heard there's a communal house of sorts, which means that until I make my own I can stay there right?

(My housing plan actually entails to plant a big (four saplings) tree and the RNG letting it grow to big enough to build a decently-sized treehouse on it)

Normaly, once you have given your pseudo to July and she registered you, you can go to the server without getting a formal invitation.

There is indeed a communal fort where you can go until your own base is ready, and where you can take some resources.

There is also a mine I dug on the hill next to it where you can mine and take some resources. Only thing I ask in exchange is a small part of the resources you could mine in the tunels, and that you make sure that each new galery you dig is closed by a wall and a gate, and that each section is well-lit.

If anyone doesn't object, I will continue building it. Inkspire shall rise again!
I found the book. by Hardric on 2016-06-29 21:13:00 UTC Reply

Someone had put it inside the 'free kit' chest.

Now, for people staying at the communal house, I'll also let this announcement. You can go in the mines next to the fort and help yourself (within reasonable limits) with the resources inside. You can even claim some section of them as a domicile. Only things I ask for is help extending the mines, and making sure the sections you dig remain walled and well-lit. That's a pretty big thing to extend all alone.

On the mines by Storme Hawk on 2016-06-29 21:22:00 UTC Reply

If you find yourself around x: 270, y: 275 please DO NOT dig up, my base is in that vicinity and I'd rather not have to deal with tunnels dug through my walls/floor. If you're on the surface, its essentially the area under the lone tower by the river.
I do have my own set of mines underneath my base, if you hit those I don't mind you taking any resources you find.

I'll keep that in mind. by Hardric on 2016-06-29 21:29:00 UTC Reply

Most of the digging is going ever lower beneath the hill, but I'll wall off the galery if I stumble on someone else'e mine.

Speaking of the tunnels, Hardric... by Matt Cipher on 2016-06-29 21:21:00 UTC Reply

We should really start thinking about those Tunnel Death Games.

That's part of the reason I'm searching for help. by Hardric on 2016-06-29 21:24:00 UTC Reply

Create a real maze, with several ways inside for some PvP, for instance defending the way to the surface, need a lot more people than one person. Without talking about people with a more regular presence on the map.

The second, for the record... by JulyFlame on 2016-06-29 20:14:00 UTC Reply

Can and will result in people being removed from the minecraft server.

I'll look into restoring a previous version of the map when I get home and looking at the time stamps for who was on when if need be.

Uh, that was me? by Huinesoron on 2016-06-29 20:16:00 UTC Reply

I, um... seem to recall it changing from the Third to the Fourth early on? I figured it was permitted to change it from time to time, seeing as... y'know, that happened.

I'll leave if you want.

...I withdraw the charges, Your Honour. by Matt Cipher on 2016-06-29 20:45:00 UTC Reply

Should've made myself more clearly.

No. 1 was cut down
No. 2 was destroyed by a Creeper
No. 3 was cut down, too
No. 4 didn't grow as it was supposed to

Anyway, you're absolved, mate.

You can desecrate my grave anyway. by Huinesoron on 2016-06-29 20:48:00 UTC Reply

There's probably a chorus flower in there, plus I think the tombstone is made of something interesting; forget what.

Who do you take me for, mate? A grave robber? ;D by Matt Cipher on 2016-06-29 20:50:00 UTC Reply

I want no part in the Curse of Huinesoron's Tomb!

Don't think that one's cursed. by Huinesoron on 2016-06-29 20:55:00 UTC Reply

There is one that will kill you if you walk over it, though. Also there's one that I rose from the dead from. Probably best to avoid those.

Occurs to me that I oughtn't mention this when there's a genuine grave robber around...

Oh. by JulyFlame on 2016-06-29 20:25:00 UTC Reply

I would rather you not leave, that said.

-July, who now feels rather bad

Dunno, that's kind of soured me. by Huinesoron on 2016-06-29 20:29:00 UTC Reply

It might be helpful for you to make some clear rules on what is and isn't permitted. I sort of assumed the spawn area was communal. I've also added some fencepost windows to the upper levels of the big building, if you want to take those out.

The big building is absolutely communal. by JulyFlame on 2016-06-29 20:34:00 UTC Reply

I had said as much multiple times when I had been able to pop into the server myself. I don't mind people making modifications to it or adding their own bits to it. The idea for the fort is a central building for everyone to use if they want before or even if they head out elsewhere.

Matt Cipher had asked early on for no one to touch his tree, though, and had been upset at the ruin of the first few iterations.

I'm very sorry what I said soured you on it, Huinesoron, I was primarily concerned that there was suddenly a case of server trolling going on, since I had added a few more people on relatively recently and I don't know how they prefer to play.

-July

I've only seen either of you there once. by Huinesoron on 2016-06-29 20:40:00 UTC Reply

And that was at the same time.

To Matt Cipher: it's a Chorus Tree, if you've never run into them. If you feel like desecrating the grave of the one who did it, I think it was Huinesoron V; it's the second one that mentions the End, at any rate. You'll find it at the top of the shaft that forms my base; you can get there through the Nether quite easily.

Ah. by JulyFlame on 2016-06-29 20:44:00 UTC Reply

Well.

I'm still very apologetic and sorry.

I have to admit some frustration in my initial response regarding this came from the fact I'd have to haul my laptop out on a workday and take the time to check everything out.
